ROMAN ABRAMOVICH marched straight across the pitch and into the dressing room after Basle's shock away win put an early dent in Chelsea's Champions League hopes.

Blues boss Jose Mourinho had been complaining about the quality of ingredients available to make his 'omelette' at Chelsea, and the cracks were starting to show last night after his side were booed off the field.

Mourinho said: "Did I end up with egg on my face? Of course. I'm the manager and responsible for everything - the bad results, the bad moments.

"In the good moments, I want everyone to shine, but in the bad moments I want everyone to keep calm, keep in the shadows and I will be responsible for that."

This followed a Premier League loss at Everton only five days earlier, and Mourinho admitted responsibility despite Oscar's first-half strike giving the home side the advantage.

Worryingly, though, Mourinho fears he does not have the characters in his dressing room to bounce back when things go wrong.

"Of course it hurts coming after we lost to Everton," he said. "But I think the team probably is not a team with such maturity and personality to face the difficult moments of the game.

"Against Everton we played amazingly and they scored in the second half and, after that, you could feel the team was struggling despite dominating the game.

"This was a bit the same. When the first negative moment arrived - the equaliser - the team shakes a little bit.

"So we go home very sad, the supporters go home very sad. But tomorrow we have to go to training and prepare for the next match.

"It's the only way I know in football: work hard, believe in what you do, believe in each other, be critical inside to try and resolve things inside our group, stick together, keep together, and try and get a result against Fulham. That wakes up the team with a smile."

Mourinho thinks that to keep his dream alive of winning the Champions League with Chelsea, they must win their two other home group games and also win on their travels.

He said: "We lost three points. But we must get them somewhere. Now we have to get the six points at home and to win points away from home.

"So we have to go to win at Basle to compensate. The objective to finish top two is an objective that is not lost: far from it.
